I believe you are right.We have become a nation of spoiled and complacent children.The article was from CBN and since I'm Catholic, I doubt it will have any direct impact on me. I would not however, have a problem with sitting under the authority of a priest who came from West Senegal for example.

I wouldn't have a problem submitting as Holy Spirit led to anyone who Loved God wholly; their neighbor as self; did unto others as they would have the other do unto them in reversed contexts--and particularly anyone who was led intimately by Holy Spirit at that point and place in time--even a 4 year old child from--anywhere.

We have a young pastor handling two Catholic churches. He has received help from Ghanna with a young priest who is loved by the parish. He kind of shakes up the people when he has some prayers in Latin.

The first thing he wanted to see when he got to the U S was K-Mart.

He will be here 3 years.

you know, a lot of Catholic diocese have priests from other countries,or who were born in other countries.

Tulsa diocese has priests from Africa, Asia, and South America. Ironically, the one from Asia and one American priest ordained two years ago are graduates of Oral Roberts Univ...but then, we are "mission territory", so tend to get outsiders to volunteer to work here.The next parish has a priest from new Zealand.

And many diocese have Vietnamese priests, either who were born there or who were born of refugees.
